In which two places can the maximum email size be overridden on FortiMail? (Choose two.)

Question

Options

• AIP Policy configuration
• BProtected Domain configuration
• CResource Profile configuration
• DSession Profile configuration

• A
  6% (2)
• B
  92% (33)
• D
  3% (1)

Explanation

FortiMail uses a layered configuration model where the global maximum email size can be overridden at the Protected Domain level (B) - allowing different size limits per hosted or protected domain - and at the Resource Profile level (C) - allowing per-user or per-group resource quotas including message size caps. These two layers represent the domain-scope and user-scope override points in FortiMail's hierarchy.

IP Policy (A) is incorrect because IP policies govern connection-level access control based on sender/recipient IP addresses; they do not expose a message size override setting. Session Profile (D) is incorrect because session profiles handle SMTP session behavior (e.g., rate limits, connection timeouts) rather than acting as an override point for message size - the size limit there is a session-level constraint, not an override in the configuration hierarchy.

Memory tip: Think "Domain and User" - FortiMail lets you override email size at the Domain (Protected Domain) and User (Resource Profile) scope. If the option doesn't map to one of those two scopes, it's a distractor.
